If she agreed to Gu Xi's request, her regular life would inevitably be disrupted, and Yuan Chu felt a little confused.

She couldn't agree decisively, but she couldn't bear to refuse, so she was left with a feeling of conflict.

Obviously, being indecisive and dragging things out is not her style, and it is not pleasant at all.

She herself doesn't like to be hesitant and nagging when dealing with things, like an old turtle, dithering and procrastinating.

But ever since he met Gu Xi, Yuan Chu's psychology and behavior could not be explained by common sense. He always thought about the other person uncontrollably and believed what the other person said.

She clearly had doubts, but in the end she subconsciously excused the other party and chose to believe him.

Seeing her hesitation at a glance, Gu Xi's eyes changed slightly. She looked at Yuan Chu and smiled calmly: "Don't worry, sister. I already know the answer."

Yuanchu was helpless.

She lowered her head, closed her eyes, and whispered, "How long do you need to stay here?"

Her heartbeat, calm as a lake, suddenly quickened. Gu Xi knew that she had made the right bet again. She bet that her master would be soft-hearted towards her and would trust and protect her without reason like before.

He would not have the heart to abandon her, so she was taking a gamble, and it turned out that her gamble was right and she won.

Even if she loses the bet, it doesn't matter. After all, Gu Xi has made all the preparations and she is bound to integrate into Yuanchu's life.

This is the reason why those who are close to water get the moon first.

Gu Xi curled her lips slightly, with a smile in her eyes.

Her smile is pure and bright, a smile that comes from the heart, sweet to the heart and makes people feel sincere at first glance.

"Maybe a few days, maybe a month."

Or maybe for a lifetime, or maybe forever, Gu Xi added silently in her heart.

Everything has changed, yet nothing has changed.

Fate is a difficult thing to explain, at least for now, people cannot explain it clearly in words.

We originally thought that they were two parallel planetary orbits that would never intersect, but driven by fate, they stumbled and intersected countless times.

Gu Xi broke into Yuan Chu's private life like this, without any warning, catching him off guard.

There was suddenly a new person in the house. Yuanchu thought she would not be able to adapt for a long time, but she got used to the presence of another person in the house in just two or three days.

It’s not that she has a strong adaptability, but mainly because Gu Xi is also very good at keeping her promises.

During the few days she was here, she didn't do anything inappropriate and didn't bother her too much, so the two of them got along quite well.

Just like she said to Yuanchu: "I am very good."

When Yuanchu asked her how her house search was going, she always smiled and said, "It's almost there, I'm looking, but I haven't found a suitable one yet."

Yuanchu had reason to suspect that she was just trying to fool him, but he had no evidence.

Gu Xi had always offered to pay for her room, but she refused.

I don’t know what Yuanchu was thinking. Maybe he thought it was just a few days and there was no need to talk about money. After all, as the saying goes, talking about money hurts feelings.

***

One day, Yuanchu got off work and drove home as usual.

In the past, she would have to cook for herself after work, but since Gu Xi came, it seemed that she no longer needed to go into the kitchen.

It seems that she found a nanny? She also takes care of the cooking, and the key is that it is completely free.

Gu Xi is also good at cooking, but the dishes she makes are delicious with good color, aroma and taste. Yuan Chu gave her 99 points, one point less because he was afraid that she would become too proud.

She almost thought that Gu Xi had learned cooking, but when she asked, she was denied.

I got on the elevator and pressed my fingerprint on the door lock.

As soon as the door opened, the aroma of food wafted in, and Yuan Chu knew that Gu Xi was cooking in the kitchen.

Yuanchu changed his shoes, washed his hands, and went into the kitchen.

Gu Xi was wearing an apron and standing in front of the stove, stir-frying food with her hands. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on her, as if giving her a layer of warm golden light, making her look a lot softer.

The blue flames licked the bottom of the pot. She gently poured in cooking oil. When the oil was hot, she put the onion, ginger and garlic into the pot and sautéed them.

Then, she poured the chopped greens into the pot and quickly stir-fried them. The leaves flew around in the pot, and Gu Xi precisely controlled the heat so that each leaf was heated evenly.

Hearing the sound, Gu Xi turned her head and said with a smile: "Sister, you are back. It's time to prepare for dinner."

Yuan Chu was moved by her bright smile, smiled back at her and walked to her side.

"Is there anything else you need to do? Let me help you."

"No need, the dishes are already cooked, I'll just make some soup."

Yuanchu hummed softly.

Gu Xi: "Sister, go sit in the living room for a while, it will be ready soon."

Yuanchu: "It's okay, I'll help you."

Gu Xi: "It's just making soup, why do you need help? Sister is tired from work, go to the living room and take a rest."

Yuan Chu shook his head, and seeing that Gu Xi seemed to want to make egg drop soup, he helped beat the egg drops.

Shredded pork with fish flavor, spicy chicken, stir-fried vegetables, and seaweed egg drop soup.

For two people, three dishes and one soup, the portion is just enough for two people.

The aroma of the food was like little elves, dancing and jumping in the air, teasing Yuanchu's olfactory nerves.

It is a unique and tempting taste, with a light aroma of rice and a strong aroma of vegetables, intertwined and blended perfectly.

The dishes cooked by Gu Xi seemed to have some kind of magic that attracted Yuan Chu involuntarily. He swallowed his saliva in his throat and his stomach seemed to be growling.

It's not her fault. It's just that the food Gu Xi cooks is surprisingly to her liking. She eats more of the food Gu Xi cooks than the food she cooks herself.

Yuanchu was eating her meal attentively. She picked up a piece of vegetable and lowered her eyes.

She lowered her head slightly, chewing some vegetables, and the loose hair on her forehead fell down inadvertently, blocking her sight.

Before Yuanchu could make any move, a white, slender hand reached out from the side and gently brushed her hair away, and the slightly cool fingertips accidentally brushed her ear.

Yuanchu was stunned for a moment, her throat slid open, and after she swallowed the vegetables in her mouth, she immediately realized why this person wanted to help her cut her hair?

Her ears suddenly felt hot and turned a little abnormally red.

Gu Xi's eyes were full of tenderness, like a pool of spring water. With a smile on the corners of his lips, he stared at her straight.

Feeling the undisguised gaze of the person next to her lingering on her face, Yuanchu became even more embarrassed. She raised her eyes and glared at Gu Xi, angrily saying: "Why are you looking at me? Concentrate on eating."

Although Yuan Chu glared at her inexplicably, Gu Xi was not angry at all. The smile on her face became more and more wanton and too bright, and she said "Oh" softly.

"Sister is right. I will just concentrate on eating now."
